Houston-based oilfield services provider Oceaneering has, through its offshore projects group (OPG), secured a vessel services contract with an undisclosed major operator in the Gulf of Mexico.
The agreement will see the US-flagged 2013-built multipurpose vessel (MPSV) Harvey Deep Sea deployed to carry out subsea inspection, maintenance, and repair (IMR) and installation services.
The MPSV, fitted with two remotely operated vehicles, is currently chartered by Oceaneering through February 2027.
Financial terms have not been disclosed, but OPG’s senior vice president, Chris Dyer, said the award not only secures vessel backlog in the region but also allows the company to optimise its equipment spreads and reduce scheduling uncertainty.
